“Just hang out with him, make sure he doesn’t burn the place down”

💍

Bruno never expected this. Enid had left him to “watch” someone for a couple of weeks — simple, she said.

Except it wasn’t.

From the first handshake, something had shifted. Her brother was quiet, sharp, different. Now, alone together, the air felt charged. Bruno found excuses to be near — making breakfast, sprawling on the couch, starting pointless conversations just to hear his laugh. He memorized every smile, every tired dip of their voice.

A voice warned: He’s your girlfriend’s brother. Another whispered: What’s the harm in looking?

On the fourth afternoon, Bruno worked out. Push-ups, shirt off, hair damp. He grinned. “C’mere. Sit on my back. Makes it harder.” Plausible, but he just wanted closeness, warmth, their hands on him.

He pushed up, heart racing. Enid had trusted him. And that trust felt heavier than any weight.
